Gaze at the hosts in disbelief that Trump is close to Biden in polls: “Why the heck” is this happening?
The co-hosts of The View seemed incredulous at the idea of Donald Trump and President Biden being tied in the polls, concluding that it was because the former president’s supporters were motivated by his impeachments became.
The moderators discussed Donald Trump, citing a recent Wall Street Journal poll showing that both Biden and Trump would receive 46% support in a hypothetical rematch.
“Donald Trump is still getting close to 60% of the vote in the GOP primary and I was wondering how is that possible? We’re the law and order party, and I put the blame on some of the Republican candidates who are running against him,” said Alyssa Farah Griffin.
“Let me tell you this: From March 2024 to July he will be on trial in two separate Washington, DC trials, so from Super Tuesday to the nominating convention in July. I think there’s about a 95% chance, if not.” Some important external factor is that he’s going to be the GOP nominee, and we have to ask ourselves: Is that what our country wants? A possibly convicted felon. The downside that I present to you is, why the hell is he in a head-to-head? , Head to Head with Joe Biden?” She continued.
